I am leading even with a 10 man team. I had requested to replace injured Bravo with Dwayne Smith after he got injured. It is only fair to do so. Even the real IPL league allows it. So I am just going to assume the same and add points collected by Dwayne Smith from the date my request was made. I think that puts me just over 3100. I will calculate and post the exact number later.

Fingers crossed!

Not really. Scores are not double until end of tournament.

Its a running total, they have already been doubled. Having said that Maxi has 516 in 258 balls, he would need to play atleast 85 dot balls, from now till end of the tournament to drag him down below a S/R of 150.

Gayle could easily be dropped. Ok, not easily.

Like all competitions there are pre-tournament favorites and tournament top performers. Most of the time they are different. The thing about IPL is , everybody gets paid differently based of pre-tournament favorite status. When so much money is involved its tough to let the most expensive players sit on bench, but eventually they need to realise MI is stronger without Corey Anderson, Kolkotta without Kallis, Punjab without Marsh, and Banglore without Gayle.

If you look at this season's performances, its evident sooner the realization has stuck the better the teams have done.
